Synopsis:
When Miss Flora Hartington bumps into a handsome traveling apothecary, she sees her chance at adventure, a brief escape from the shackles of propriety, and she jumps at the opportunity. It doesn’t hurt that he’s incredibly attractive, and kind in his own way. But it’s a temporary solution to her very big problem––namely her family trying to control her entire future.
Kidnapped by traveling folk as a child, Lawrence Campion yearns to be a real doctor, which means earning passage to America. The last thing he needs is to be saddled with the beautiful and feisty Flora. However, he’ll do whatever it takes to protect her, and then be off to fulfill his dreams. But Lawrence has a past that is quickly catching up with him. And he carries a secret that could destroy both their plans.
Each book in the Wanton in Wessex series is STANDALONE:
* A Perilous Passion
* A Potion for Passion
My Thoughts:
When Miss Flora Hartington bumps into a handsome, kind traveling apothecary, she sees her chance at adventure, so she jumps at the opportunity. But this is a temporary solution to her very big problem of her family trying to control her entire future.
Kidnapped by traveling folk as a child, Lawrence Campion has no idea who he really is. The last thing he needs when he wants to go to America where he can become a real doctor is the beautiful and feisty Flora. However, he’ll do whatever it takes to protect her, and then be off to fulfill his dreams. But Lawrence has a past that is quickly catching up with him.
Will the secret he carries destroy both his and Flora’s plans?
Are these two destined for one another?
This is the second title in this standalone series. Elizabeth Keysian has done a good job with both titles though this one may be my favorite of the two.
There is just a bit of suspense a lot of mayhem and just enough romance to keep your interest.
I gave this book 4.25 of 5.0 stars for storyline and characterization and a sensual rating of 3 of 5 flames. There is intimacy involved but not really scorching in nature.
I received a complimentary digital ARC of this book to read. This in no way affected my opinion of this book which I read and reviewed voluntarily.
I know we haven’t even celebrated Halloween yet, but I want to tell you about a
wonderful Christmas/holiday box set called A Night Of Angels
that is now on pre-order and releasing on November 27th.
All of the stories are new, never before seen, and you’ll
recognize many of the talented authors in this set.
Meara Platt’s story is If You Wished For Me,
which is about William Farthingale and Meggie Cameron.
Their hearts are meant to be together, but one secret is keeping them apart.
Shall William be the one to bring Meggie the Christmas miracle she needs?
Hint, hint: this is a heartwarming holiday romance.

Synopsis:
*** A Steamy Regency Romance ***
Olivia Caldwell always believed the man to be insufferable. Unfortunately, he was her brother’s best friend, therefore unavoidable. And while Lord Bradford might be opinionated, domineering, and a notorious rake. He was also the only man in England who was able to rescue her from kidnappers. A fact that was going to lead to her worse nightmare. A marriage of convenience to the one man who she could not control.
Lord Bradford knew the woman was demanding, opinionated, and a thorn in his side since she was a little girl. Now, beautiful, charming, and with a tongue sharper than a Sheffield blade, she was a man’s worse nightmare. A woman who could capture his heart.
But, society’s rules demanded he wed this hellion. His only hope, have her surrender to him. If he failed, he would surely surrender his heart to her, and that way lay madness.
